Amazing how the AI gurus all repeat each others claims and aspirations verbatim. Like they all share the same tick sheet. They say Artificial Superintelligence will:
Create radical abundance - tick
Cure all disease- tick
Spread consciousness to the stars - tick
Prolong life and…
A thing that we are forgetting - that it is possible to appreciate a beautifully written piece of writing – but to utterly disagree with it.
Our libraries should be teeming with texts that may even despise, loathe or fear.
For too long Scottish politics has had an authoritarian idea of what the role of govt is.
The belief has been that govt must control & shape people for their own good.
We've lost the belief that govt humbly serves the will of the people.
After the last fiascos this has to change
All species on earth should be genetically re-engineered so that they can no longer inflict or experience suffering - according to an actual existing transhumanist manifesto.
That’s 2.13 million species to be remade so they no longer eat each other.
Here's the manifesto of the Transhumanist who believes that every one of the 2.13 million species on earth should be bio-tech re-engineered to no longer experiences suffering by killing & eating each other.
"The Abolitionist Project" by David Pearce. hedweb.com/abolitionist-p…
People who “believe in super intelligent AI” often use the logical fallacy of stating a desired end as if it were a predetermined inevitability.
- “it is unstoppable” they say “it will happen” “it is coming in four years….in ten years”. “This is the future” “the future is here”
Nemesis - the Greek Goddess of judgment & retribution - visited our country today.
She administers justice against acts of hubris - when mortals overstep their bounds, into pride & arrogance. With her scales & sword, she intervenes to maintain the balance of the natural order.
When Big Tech talk about the inevitable AI/robotic future, they only talk of positive outcomes.
Ask about negative outcomes & they insist these aren't inevitable at all. E.g AI controlled cities; lethal drones; mass unemployment; nanobot 'grey goo'
Only good is inevitable. Why?
What other life forms do you want to “make better” thanks to AI gene editing? Let’s be clear: this won’t actually happen, but the vision is the result of, and motivation for, a broader ideology that continues to expand in deeply troubling ways. It shuts down other possibilities.

Classic-Tech-hype-fail. The Sinclair C5 ("one-person battery electric recumbent tricycle") launched in the UK in 1983, as an alternative to cars & bikes. It became a laughing stock, described as a "Formula One bath-chair". It flopped and the company went bust within two years.
